DEVELOPMENT OF THE REGION OF BIG RIVERS OF THE LEBUSER LAND — PROGRAM LEADER +

In 2006 the office was inten­si­ve­ly invol­ved in the design and imple­men­ta­ti­on of a pio­nee­ring pro­ject for tou­rism deve­lo­p­ment and eco­no­mic rege­ne­ra­ti­on in rural are­as. The work began with the initia­ti­on of a series of work­shops, con­sis­ting of 8 work­shops, which invol­ved both the admi­nis­tra­ti­on and the resi­dents of five muni­ci­pa­li­ties in the regi­on of the Gre­at River Land­scape in the bor­der­land — Cybin­ka, Słu­bice, Gór­zy­ca, Słońsk and Wit­ni­ca. In par­al­lel, the office sup­port­ed the estab­lish­ment of the ROZ­WÓJ REGI­O­NU WIEL­KICH RZEK ZIE­MI LUBUS­KIEJ Foun­da­ti­on, of which Iza­be­la Malachows­ka-Coqui has been a board mem­ber sin­ce 2006. Through suc­cessful appli­ca­ti­ons, the pro­ject recei­ved a total of 965,000 euros in fun­ding from the Lea­der+ pro­gram. Coope­ra­ti­on with the muni­ci­pa­li­ty of Gór­zy­ca and its com­mit­ted mayor Robert Sto­lar­ski play­ed a key role in the suc­cess of this ambi­tious pro­ject. A total of 50 par­ti­ci­pan­ts took part in the work­shop series, who­se enthu­si­asm and com­mit­ment made a valuable con­tri­bu­ti­on to the posi­ti­ve deve­lo­p­ment of the regi­on.
